Aside from not tarnishing, is there an actual advantage to platinum over silver that justifies the markup (aside from rarity, obviously)? It seems to hold lustre worse than silver, from personal experience.

A brief derail away from gemstones, if you'll permit me: What are the best methods of darkening or artificially tarnishing sterling silver? My favorite piece of jewelry is a fairly minimalist blackened ring (this one) but as you'd expect while the casting is unchanging the tint rubs off over time due to water and wear. I was going to muck around with doing a homestyle application but the internet is awash with suggestions of different compounds and I don't know what procedure professionals actually use to make it lasting or only apply to specific parts of the metal in specific degrees. tirinal fucked around with this message at 13:54 on Dec 15, 2011 |
